I spent last weekend Vancouver. There was two orders of business going on. 1. we were bringing puppy Cliff to his new family (whom met us in Vancouver from the Island). And 2. I was looking for car to replace my VW Jetta that my insurance company wrote off. Sadly I wasn’t able to find …

The Missing Puppy Pictures!
On January 6th I posted a story about our road trip to Victoria to drop off some puppies. See that post here. There was actually a bunch of pictures that went with that story. I just noticed that the pictures never got published with the story! WordPress has been a little weird for me these …
A Dark Night in Victoria
I was hanging out one night visiting with some family and around 10:30 everyone was off to bed. I was pretty tired, but I knew it was good opportunity for me to go out and shoot some photos. It was cold and snowy, so it wasn’t exactly a nice time to be out and about, …
An Oak Bay Sunset
While I was visiting family in Victoria I had a lot of nice opportunities to walk around the shoreline of the and enjoy the views. This particular evening I wasn’t even planning on going out, but I saw the sunset happening and since my in-laws live across the street from the beach I ran out …
So much snow!
My family and I were just living it up in Victoria for a visit recently. While they did have an unusual amount of snow in Victoria, it was nothing compared to what was waiting for us back in Kelowna. The snow is everywhere! I had the shovel more than one person off the side of …
Street Shooting with the Leica CL Rangefinder
When I’m out doing the street photography thing I like to shoot wide open. I just like the way the photos look that way better. This style of shooting with a rangefinder is quite difficult, at least it is for me. Nailing focus on moving subjects with a rangefinder patch isn’t exactly easy and since …
And Then There Were 3
We piled 3 puppies and one mom dog into the car and set off for Vancouver Island. The plan was to drive to Vancouver, catch a ferry and land in Nanaimo, BC where we would meet the new owners of 2 of the puppies (Dora & Cliff). Then we would head off to Victoria with …
Another Wonderful Christmas
Christmas 2021 was a beauty! We still got three puppies and some family dropped in to join in the festivities. Obviously my kids were up nice and early to open their Christmas gifts. I told them the night before not to wake me up before 7am (because I say up pretty late with the puppies). …
The Broken Heart of a Puppy Dad
If you follow my blog or photography at all you know our dog Juneau had puppies recently. The puppies have been so much work and it’s been a wild ride raising these puppies the last two months. I’ve spent many late nights with the puppies, playing with them, feeding them, cleaning up after them and …
Film Reflection
If you watched the video in my last post you’ve already seen this picture, if you haven’t then wa-la! 😉 I didn’t plan this photo out. I was just taking pictures of my son sitting on his bike and I couldn’t help but notice the reflection in the window to my right. After I was …
CineStill 800T Video
I shot a video of while I was shooting CineStill film photos with Cameron the other night. I really love this film because of the unique look it has to it. This video is part 1 or 2 because I am trying to keep the videos short. I will release part 2 next week. Thanks …
Vintage Snowman
My wife bought this awesome vintage snowman decoration for our house. I think it was supposed to just sit on your lawn or something, but I thought it would look better on our fence, so that’s where I put it. I love the smiling face of the snow man so I got a little closer …
CineStill Cameron
I loaded up a roll of CineStill 800T 35mm film loaded into my Canon EOS 3 and as I was walking out the door to go shoot some photos my son Cameron asked me where I was going. I told him and asked him if he wanted to come with me, he did. 🙂 Since …
